What Happens During A Crime Scene Cleanup

Crime scene cleanup involves the meticulous and thorough process of cleaning and sanitizing a location where a crime, accident, or traumatic event has occurred. This type of cleanup is crucial not only for restoring the physical environment but also for addressing potential health and safety hazards resulting from biohazardous materials, bodily fluids, and other contaminants that might be present at the scene. The process we use typically involves the following steps:

• Assessment: Our crime scene cleaners and trauma cleanup professionals assess the extent of the contamination and the areas that need to be cleaned. This assessment helps in formulating a cleanup plan and determining the necessary equipment, materials, and precautions.
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Before entering the crime scene, cleanup technicians wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, masks, goggles, coveralls, and sometimes respirators. This gear helps to prevent exposure to potential hazards. The safety and protection of our cleaners is paramount to any cleaning we do.
• Removal of Biohazardous Materials: Any biological materials, such as blood, bodily fluids, and tissue, are carefully and safely removed from surfaces. This step involves proper containment, bagging, and labeling of biohazardous waste according to relevant regulations. It may also involve removing surfaces affected or any porous materials that can not be safely sanitized.
• Cleaning and Decontamination: Our trauma cleanup team thoroughly cleans and disinfects affected surfaces using specialized cleaning agents designed to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. This step ensures the removal of any traces of contaminants and helps in odor mitigation.
• Disposal: Biohazardous waste is properly packaged, labeled, and disposed of according to New York regulations and guidelines. The waste is transported to authorized facilities for safe disposal. We usually attempt to transport any biohazards to the nearest biohazard waste facility to the location in New York where we are performing services.
• Restoration: Depending on the severity of the incident, some materials might need to be removed, such as carpets, fabrics, and porous surfaces. The goal is to restore the scene to a safe and habitable state. Further restoration may require outside contractors depending on what is being removed and if anything needs to be replaced or rebuilt.
• Verification: After the cleanup is complete, a final inspection is conducted to ensure that all contaminants have been effectively removed. Verification might involve various tests and assessments to confirm that the environment is safe. You may request a certificate from our trauma cleanup technicians that shows that the home or business was professionally cleaned and decontaminated.
• Documentation: Detailed documentation of the cleanup process is maintained for legal and insurance purposes. This documentation may include photographs, reports, and a record of the cleaning procedures carried out. You can also request our staff’s assistance in submitting any documents to your insurance company.
